Hundreds of protesters marched in Toronto, in support of those fighting for freedom and justice in Libya and other Arab countries. While Moamar Ghadaffi continues his reign of terror, many Libyan-Canadians worry about their families back home.
The popular uprisings have spanned across the Middle East and North Africa, where Libya's has been the most brutal.
Toronto's rally has been organized by the youth and even the youngest of protestors are calling for Ghadafi's ouster.

Aisha El-Mekki’s mother didn’t believe in ‘sparing the rod’. She also had a deep respect for teachers, nuns and other authority figures; a respect that never trickled down to her youngest daughter. Discipline was real in the El-Mekki household, so from an early age she and her older sister formed an alliance. They promised not to tell on each other. Sometimes El-Mekki even took a beating for her sister. When she was in first grade, the two were sent away to a private, all-white boarding school. In third grade, El-Mekki was expelled.
“As a child, if I got backed into a wall, I would refuse to do whatever you wanted me to do because you were trying to force me.”
Upon returning to her home in Philadelphia, El-Mekki’s mother – who worked until five everyday – enrolled her daughter in the neighborhood school. It was around this time that El-Mekki met her best friend, Shakora. The two began spending afternoons together, deepening their friendship and getting into trouble.
“One time I was on a bus. It was a Friday afternoon. The bus driver said my pass had expired; that I had to get a transfer…so he gave me a transfer while waiting for the next bus and the next bus was late. We waited for a while. There was a crowd of people by the time the bus came. [The next bus driver] said that my pass had expired and that I needed to get off the bus. Well I didn’t have any more money, so I said, ‘I paid my fare and I will ride.’ This man decided that he was going to send a message. So he stopped a police car and told them that I refused to pay. The police emptied the bus and told the driver to drive to the police station with just me on it….so he drives this empty bus to the police station and they arrested me. And this just infuriated me. My mother had to be called and of course she was just livid….she had to end up getting a lawyer, and had to go court, miss time from work…and eventually it was resolved but I mean they charged me. I had a record. It was ridiculous. That was my first incident with what I consider police brutality…and how they can escalate a situation unnecessarily.”
Three years later, El Mekki graduated from an all-girls Catholic high school. It was at this point that she began to question the Trinity. She didn’t want to leave the church; she believed she would go to hell if she did. Still, the questions remained. So she kept her eyes open. After college, El-Mekki decided she wanted to become a social worker. She learned about a group called the Black Panther Party that was organizing programs for the needy.
“When I heard about these people feeding children – and I worked on the midnight shift – I said, ‘you know what? I’m gonna go up there’. And there were tables and tables of children being fed cereal and toast, and I was really amazed. People were doing this out of the bottom of their hearts. They weren’t getting paid for it. But they wanted to make sure the children were getting a decent breakfast.”
El-Mekki joined the group. At the same time, her religious search continued.
“I had an aunt that was Muslim. I used to visit her. She was not aggressive, she was not pushy, she was not trying to convert me. Anytime I had a question, she would answer. Her husband was very nice. And I liked the way her family was so calm. It was so peaceful. And so I would go visit her often. During that time I was in the Black Panther Party, and she didn’t disapprove. Everybody else in my family said, ‘Here she goes again, doing something off the beaten path.’ But not aunt Mariam. One time when we knew that there was going to be a police raid, and we were trying to get the children out because I didn’t want the children to be there. And she just told me to bring them to her house. You know? And I just admired her. I just said wow, if her religion supports revolutionary acts like that, then I want to hear more about it. So she would always be listening to Shaheed Malcolm’s albums. She owned every word he ever said. And she’d often have his records on when I’d go over there. And she gave me his book to read because I was always asking questions about him. And that was like the answer to my prayer. You know? The part where he said that our religion doesn’t teach us to be aggressive, but if you lay a hand on me, then I can send you to the cemetery. And I said, ‘I can do that. That is the religion that I need.’ You know, that allows me to defend myself. That doesn’t encourage me to just constantly turn the other cheek. Nobody else is turning the other cheek. They’re turning the other side of their hand. And so i decided you know what, that’s when I decided Islam was for me because it allowed me to be religious and at the same time, be revolutionary.”

Sometimes one\'s intellect fails to fathom the level of trust and servitude Imam Husayn (A) had in Allah. Ustad Masood Aali narrates the story of Prophet Musa from Quran and explains what kind of trust and servitude true believers possess. Even when it comes to the youngest companion of Imam Husayn (A), one can clearly notice this highest level of belief in Allah.

Our sincere condolences to all the believers all across the world upon the martyrdom of Imam al-Jawad (A).
Imam Muhammad bin Ali ibn Musa (A) was the 9th divinely appointed Imam, and he is known as Imam al-Jawad (A).
Imam al-Jawad (A) was divinely appointed as an Imam at the age of 8 and his blessed Imamate lasted for 17 years. He was martyred at the tender age of 25, making him the youngest martyred Imam.
He was born in the blessed city of the Prophet (S), the city of Medina and he is buried in present-day Iraq, in the city of Kadhimiya.
He is also known as Bab al-Hawaij, \"the door of requests\".
And so we request you, O\' Imam al-Jawad, as you remained in the grief of the memory of lady Fatima Zahra (A), and the grief of the memory of Imam Husayn (A), we request your duaas for the return of our Yusuf, the Yusuf of lady Zahra, for the world can no longer bear the burden of oppression.
O\' Imam al-Jawad! O\' Imam al-Jawad!

Our condolences to all the believers, all across the world, upon the martyrdom anniversary of the 9th divinely appointed Imam, the Commander of the Faithful, Imam Muhammad ibne Ali al-Taqi al-Jawad (A).
Imam Muhammad ibne Ali al-Taqi al-Jawad (A) was one of the youngest Imams when he was divinely appointed by Allah as an Imam, and is a well-known personality in the history of the Muslims.
And so in commemoration of the mission and martyrdom of his eminence, we highlight and reflect upon a beautiful and life-changing tradition from Imam al-Taqi al-Jawad (A).
What was the age in which the 9th Imam (A) was divinely appointed by Allah?
And who was the honorable father of the 9th divinely appointed Imam (A)?
Who was the esteemed mother of the Imam al-Jawad (A)?
And what are some unique events in the life of Imam al-Jawad (A)?
What was the \\\'Sazemane Wikalat\\\' network, how vast was it, and what aspects did it cover?
With whom did Imam al-Taqi (A) debate with; debates which eventually directly and/or indirectly resulted in the martyrdom of his eminence?
What dynasty and which people were involved in the martyrdom of Imam al-Jawad (A)?
What does Imam al-Jawad (A) say about repentance?
And what does Imam al-Jawad (A) say about the delay of repentance and the continuation of sins?
Finally, when is the best time to ask for forgiveness?
Sayyid Shahryar answers via the words of the ninth divinely appointed Imam, Imam Muhammad ibne Ali al-Taqi al-Jawad (A)!
Peace and salutations be upon you, O’ shining light!
Peace and salutations be upon you, O’ rising full moon!
Peace and salutations be upon you, O’ Pure one from among the Pure ones!
Peace and salutations be upon you, O’ Muhammad ibne Ali al-Taqi al-Jawad (A)!
